Shantideva's Greatest Aspiration


This comes highly recommended by HH The Dalai Lama;
it's one of his favorite quotes. 
Sarva Mangalam!


Generating Altruism

 

 
 
May the poor find wealth,
Those weak with sorrow find joy; 
May the forlorn find new hope,
Constant happiness and prosperity. 
 
May the frightened cease to be afraid
And those bound be free;
May the weak find power,
And may their hearts join in friendship.
 
~Shantideva
 
Some backstory from Bob Thurman; worth a listen:
